 Our guide through this amazing story are Dr. Leo Stein and Dr. Katie Bouman. 
 
 We learn the basics of Black holes, and the interferometry performed by the Event Horizon Telescope, and then about the complicated image processing which needed to be done to interpret all of that amazing, messy data!

Episode 80: Picturing the Bach Hole

Particle physicists Dr Erica Caden and Dr. Ken Clark are my physicists today. 
 
 Our guest today is Author, musician, composer and novelist Cecil Castellucci.
 
 Today we're talking about the MinniBooNE experiment and the possibility of Sterile Neutrinos.
